+            Like many open source projects, Apache OODT is continually being developed and improved upon
+            by its devoted team members.
+        </p><p>
+          <strong>Version 0.7</strong> has been released and is avaiable for download and use.
+          This is a <b>large</b> release and it is recommended that all users of any prior version of
+          OODT upgrade immediately to 0.7. Users can easily jump from 0.3 (stable production version) to
+          0.7 and/or from 0.6 to 0.7 with ease. The 0.7 release addresses <a href="http://s.apache.org/cf0">79 issues</a>
+          from our <a href="http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OODT">JIRA management system</a>.
+          
+          This release provides a backwards compatible CAS-PGE upgrade allowing the wrapper to be used with 
+          existing config files. 0.7 fixes some   bugs in Ganglia support and allows the Resource Manager to work without Ganglia
+          being present. This version also   makes significant fixes to File
+          Manager tests, provides a Vagrant version of OODT RADIX and upgrades
+          RADIX to include CAS-PGE support. This version also   includes
+          improved support for a new JAX-RS CAS product service, and this
+          version eliminates several bugs in the workflow manager in its
+          support for dynamic workflow instances.
+        </p><p>
+          <strong>Version 0.6</strong> has been released and is available for download and use.
+          This is a <b>mid-sized</b> release and it is recommended that all users of 0.5 upgrade
+          immediately to 0.6. The 0.6 release addresses <a href="http://s.apache.org/6OV">69 issues</a>
+          from our <a href="http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OODT">JIRA management system</a>.
+
+          The  release includes full support for the PEAR packaging system for PHP, including the 
+          delivery of several PHP PEAR libraries for OODT's file manager. In addition, this release marks 
+          the beginnings of several Google Summer of Code projects including the ability to use Ganglia as a 
+          resource monitoring system and an all CXF based CAS-product web app. In addition, Apache OODT 0.6 
+          now successfully builds with Maven3. The Apache OODT OPSUI got a facelift in its default skin, new 
+          CAS-PGE input file writers based on templates have been added, support for running CAS-PGE in Cygwin 
+          on Windows has landed, and overall the OODT RADIX installer has been significantly improved.
+        </p><p>
+          <strong>Version 0.5</strong> has been released and is available for download and use.
+          This is a <b>mid-sized</b> release and it is recommended that all users of 0.4 upgrade 
+          immediately to 0.5. The 0.5 release addresses <a href="http://s.apache.org/PY9">61 issues</a>
+          from our <a href="http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OODT">JIRA management system</a>.
+         
+          The release includes various ingestion and curation-related improvements to our File Manager 
+          system including a lenient Lucene-based catalog that allows the ingestion of arbitrary metadata; 
+          improvements to our Solr-based indexing system to dump File Manager metadata from arbitrary catalog
+          backends to Solr; and improvements to our Curator JAX-RS web application system.
+
+          In addition, several bugs related to the PushPull remote file retrieval
+          system and bugs related to various tools including the ExpImpCatalog tool
+          were fixed.
+
+          Finally the release marks a complete improvement of the WEngine workflow
+          system. CAS-PGE, crawler, workflow manager and resource manager can now all
+          be used together, in a forwards (Wengine/Workflow2) and backwards
+          compatible way. Early WEngine features including explicit support for
+          branch and bounds in policy, inheritable configuration, global workflow
+          conditions, task-level timeouts and post conditions, are now all supported.        
+        </p><p>
+            <strong>Version 0.4</strong> has been released and is available for download and use. This is
+            a <b>major</b> release that includes <a href="http://s.apache.org/uGQ">168 fixed issues in JIRA</a>
+            and is now the major recommended release of OODT to be using. One major note is that
+            the updates to the workflow manager (described in <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OODT-215">OODT-215</a>)
+            are not yet fully complete. Instead of waiting for them to finish, we rolled this release and are 
+            recommending users to stay on the 0.3 version of the workflow manager, cas-pge, and the 
+            crawler components. All other components should be upgraded to their 0.4 counterparts. A complete list of changes
+            can be found <a href="http://www.bizdirusa.com/mirrors/apache//oodt/CHANGES-0.4.txt">here</a>. 
+            Grab your copy from the <a href="../downloads">Download</a> page today.
+        </p><p>
+            <strong>Version 0.3</strong> has been released and is available for download and use.  This is the 
+            second release from the team as a Top Level Project and includes several bug fixes and
+            enhancements, over 50 issues were closed during this release cycle. A complete list of changes
+            can be found <a href="http://www.bizdirusa.com/mirrors/apache//oodt/CHANGES-0.3.txt">here</a>.

+        </p><p>
+            The Apache OODT community is proud to present version 0.2 for download and use.  This is the 
+            first release from the team as a Top Level Project, which demonstrates our commitment to continuous
+            improvement. Be sure to visit the <a href="../downloads">Download</a> page to get a copy for yourself.
+        </p><p>
+            The OODT Team has graduated from the <a href="http://incubator.apache.org/">Incubator</a> and we
+            are pleased to inform you that our code is available for <a href="../downloads">download</a>.
+            We've developed a <a href="roadmap">roadmap</a> outlining future releases, including
+            the first release under Apache aegis: 0.1-incubating, which we hope to offer for
+            download shortly.  Of course, there's nothing stopping an early
+            adopter from grabbing <a href="source">the source</a> and building it him or herself.
+        </p><h4>Build Details</h4><p>
+            The majority of the <a href="../components">components</a> of OODT is written in
+            <a href="http://java.sun.com/">Java</a>, while the <a href="../components/agility">Agility</a>
+            component is written in <a href="http://python.org/">Python</a>.  Knowledge of both is nice, though.
+        </p><p>Each component of the Java build is controlled by <a href="http://maven.apache.org/">Maven</a>.  
+            However, there is also a top-level <a href="http://maven.apache.org/pom.html">project object model</a>
+            that orchestrates building <em>all</em> of the OODT components.  Maven is not used for the
+            Agility component; being Python, it takes advantage of the traditional Python Distutils
+            enhanced by <a href="http://python-distribute.org/">Distribute</a>.
+        </p><h4>Testing</h4><p>
+            While we may not fully subscribe to the idea that "untested code is broken code", we do strive
+            to include a lot of automated unit and functional testing. Apache OODT has its own 
+            <a href="https://builds.apache.org/job/oodt-trunk/">Jenkins continuous integration</a>
+            server that runs nightly, and automatically after each commit.
